Chapter 1112 Emperor Zhu's Cheat Device (3rd update, please subscribe)
Better opportunities!
Every country will make its choice.
There has never been a so-called "chosen country" in this world, but there is no "chosen son". At least to some extent, Emperor Zhu is almost the chosen son of God in a sense.
Not only did he stand on the shoulders of historical giants to guide the direction of the empire, allowing the Ming Empire to avoid many detours, but the help of the simulator also enabled him to take control of many initiatives.
Almost at the same time when the naval fleet won the naval battle as expected, Emperor Zhu summoned the system again.
"system!"
Familiar interface, familiar screen, familiar...
Very familiar and friendly.
"Do you want to enable life simulation?"
Every time faced with the choice of "yes" or "no", Emperor Zhu hesitated a little. Although this life simulator brought him a lot of help, it also made him dependent on it.
When in doubt, he would do a simulation first. Even a short-term simulation based on a points system would be extremely beneficial to him. Through a short-term simulation lasting one to two months, he could get a glimpse of the future to a certain extent.
It is through this glimpse into the future that Emperor Zhu Da can always seize the initiative. This time he opened the simulator to simulate the changes in the international situation in the next one to two months.
After the development of history had completely deviated from his track, although there were many times when Emperor Zhu could use it to analyze the changes in the international situation and make accurate judgments.
But most of the time, he uses intelligence channels to grasp the developments of the international situation and makes judgments based on the intelligence and the advice of the cabinet. Why does he do this?
To put it bluntly, they are afraid of becoming dependent on the system.
After all, this so-called "life simulation system" will be upgraded. In fact, the so-called upgrade may even be a downgrade. For example, there is only one long-term simulation left. Although the short-term simulation is still there, God knows when it will disappear.
If you become dependent on it, what if it disappears?
Then everything would be ruined. Sometimes people are like this, always like to move forward with crutches. If they get used to the existence of the crutches and forget that the crutches will be lost, one day, before their legs have grown back fully, they will lose the crutches. At that time, they will really become lame.
It doesn't matter if an individual is lame, but if the country is lame, then it's a big deal, as it concerns the fate and future of hundreds of millions of citizens.
It is also for this reason that Emperor Zhu did not dare to easily "simulate when in doubt". It was not that he did not want to, but that he did not dare.
For many people, the most difficult thing is to control their desires and thoughts.
Are you being fair to God if you don't use the cheats you have?
But Emperor Zhu... he really doesn't dare!
He did not have any worries in all aspects, but in order to acquire advanced technology, he would still conduct some meaningless simulations. For example, when he went to Yunling, he would simulate what would happen in the next few days.
You don't have to think about what will happen. It must be the kind that all men like.
The royal estate in Genting, to a large extent, was the golden house of Emperor Zhu, where he kept his beauties and lovers.
Why did the Ming Dynasty not follow the Chinese tradition of polygamy or polygamy, and even allow monogamy through law? It's not that Emperor Zhu's thoughts were so modern. After all, Emperor Zhu was essentially a layman.
But it’s because there are not enough women in the Ming Dynasty!
Even now, with so many girls from Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia being introduced, the gender ratio in the Ming Dynasty has still not reached a balanced level.
The general environment of more men than women has not changed. After all, among the millions of immigrants each year, the proportion of adult males is still above 60%. In the early years, it even reached 80%!
If the empire still follows the Chinese tradition of polygamy, it will only further worsen the phenomenon of more men than women in the Ming Dynasty.
If it is not prohibited by law, not only the rich will marry young wives, but ordinary people will do the same. In fact, human nature is to be greedy for new things and forget the old, and this is true even when faced with hardships. Even farmers in the countryside who harvest an extra three or five bushels of grain would want to marry a young wife, let alone those workers with a fairly high income level?
After all, in the early Ming Dynasty, it only cost a dozen yuan to hire a "contract maid", and the cost of taking a concubine was really not high! If there were no restrictions, I don't know how many people would remain single.
Therefore, as early as in Nanhua, Emperor Zhu established the principle of "monogamy". Even after he ascended the throne as emperor, he still adhered to this principle without wavering.
But...
As an emperor, like most powerful and wealthy people, he also had a lover.
Privileges...How could the emperor not have privileges?
Many times, the reason why people hate privileges is not because they oppose the privileges themselves, but because the privileges are not in their hands.
Emperor Zhu had his privileges, such as the golden house on the top of the cloud. In order to let the children born to his lovers have the title of imperial prince, he even issued a decree that the empress had the custody of all the emperor's children and was the nominal mother of all his children. Of course, this also included the children born to his lovers, so that his children would not become illegitimate children.
This is the privilege of being an emperor - he can even issue decrees as needed, of course, this is only a decree involving royal inheritance rights. In other words, this law is limited to the royal family. According to Ming Dynasty law, illegitimate children have no inheritance rights, which is also to combat the rich's possession of reproductive rights.
It can be said that for the future of the empire, Emperor Zhu took every detail into consideration.
Once again, when heading to Genting and the Emperor's Golden House, Emperor Zhu chose to turn on the "Simulator" and conducted a short simulation.
Such simulations were only to keep the mall ahead of others and to benefit the scientific community of the empire. However, for him personally, such simulations were even a bit boring, and to a certain extent, they were like watching an action movie from an island country for two days, except that the protagonists were himself and his lovers, and sometimes, some maids were added.
What is a dream and what is reality.
It's unclear in the simulator.
In the following simulation, time flies...
“It’s actually happening!”
Soon, when Emperor Zhu finished the simulation, a strange light flashed in his eyes. The boring simulation actually had a little surprise. This was really... a bit surprising!
No, it should be...this matter is a bit complicated!
"Actually... am I that kind of person?"
Touching his chin with his hand, recalling the erotic scene in the simulator, Emperor Zhu was a little amused...
